Some have asked me why Super 7 Reaction action figures cost so much, sometimes more than $20 a figure, well I figured it was time I talked about it and sadly why they are so high.

There are a lot of ReAction figures I would have bought if they were still $10. Licensing or not, $20 for these is ridiculous. Frankly I'm surprised they sell many of these at that price point.

It’s plain and simple, you’re not getting $20 worth of product with these at all. $10 is properly priced for something this basic. Don’t get me wrong, these are cool but they shouldn’t cost as much as a high end Star Wars fig.

The funny thing is, I'm fairly sure that Super7 ReAction figures were $10 when they first came out (or at least when I first started noticing them in 2015ish). That's what I paid for the Michael Myers, Jason, and Freddie figures. Back then when ReAction figures went on clearance, they could go as low as like $4-5 (which is what I paid for an Escape from NY Snake Plissken figure). It's batshit insane how these things have doubled in price in such a relatively short period of time.

I’m sure licensing and the scale of production plays a part in the price… but leaving aside Hasbro and the big companies, Hiya is a small company and their 1:18, super articulated and wonderfully painted licensed figures from properties like Aliens, Predator, and Robocop are usually right around $20 a pop. That tells me that Super 7 CAN do it cheaper if they wish.

They got a SpongeBob and Peanuts line, not even stylized to look like Kenner stuff either just straight up figures that look like the characters and they're STILL that much. And I love SpongeBob and Peanuts, so it really grinds my gears. I remember when I heard Super7 got the Godzilla license and then remembered they sell TMNT figures for $50+ and got sad. Thankfully Hiya got the Godzilla license and their Godzilla teasers look better than Necas were for like, $10 or so more?

This is why I enjoy collecting Final Faction figures. They’re $1.25! For the price you pay, the molds and paint jobs are impressive. Since I’ve heard about them it’s becoming fun to collect again. I think nostalgic licensing is way overplayed. It’s time to come out with something original that you don’t mind taking out of the package and fiddling around with. I really don’t care about them becoming valuable. I can spend $20 and walk home with tons of creative ORIGINAL designs.
@brushstroke3733
@brushstroke3733 2 жыл бұрын
Ironically, since few people are probably collecting Final Faction to save, and since they are a line some kids may actually play with and enjoy, Final Faction toys will probably end up being the collectibles thirty five years from now, while all the current collectible stuff will be overbought, readily available, and of no nostalgic interest to the next generation of collectors. Hence, collectibles will be worthless, and Final Faction toys (or anything that isn't really bought with the intention of keeping and preserving) will likely go up in value due to their natural scarcity.

Great video, I agree with all you said but as a collector and someone who remembers buying a $1.99 figure meant for kids believe that toy companies have lost their way and are way more interested in the adult collector and their nostalgic memories - not going to pay $20 for a figure when gas is $6 a gallon
@brushstroke3733
@brushstroke3733 2 жыл бұрын
I remember when Kenner Star Wars figures came out they were at least $5. Back then the price of gas was about $1 a gallon. So if you scale the two, the price of Super 7 figures now is comparable to ths original Star Wars figures when they were released. How much do you think figures should cost when gas is $20 a gallon? It's all relative. Inflation is how governments and banks steal all of our assets over time by constantly devaluing everything we own. Don't be mad at toy companies, they're just trying to keep up with inflation like you and me.

I have the same exact problem w/Super7's ReAction figures. For 3/4 inch 5 PoA, $18 to $20 is ridiculous. If the sculpts were super-detailed & had plenty of paint aps, that'd be one thing - but as they are, I wouldn't pay a nickle above $10 for each figure. If you're expecting me to pay $20 for a 3 & 3/4 inch figure, it BETTER be super-articulated & have some solid sculptwork. Otherwise, forget it. Shame, b/c a lot of the arwork on the carbacks is really well done. How Super7 continues making these & selling them at such an absurd price is a mystery to me.

I always see the G.I.Joe Reaction figures in Target and while they look cool, the price is an instant turn off. I picked up one of the Universal Monster reactions on clearance for 10 cents many years ago. I think it's the Mummy. I also picked up a Gustavo from Breaking Bad Reaction for 3 or 4 dollars.

Most of the tmnt figures can be had for less than 15 dollars on ebay, and that seems like an appropriate price if you plan on picking up only a few. But yeah, 20+ dollars is a bit too much unless you're really into the old school action figure aesthetic. These are for a certain kind of collector, and are probably considered more of an art piece than an actual toy. Something neat looking to display unopened on your shelf more than something to pose and play with.

Man, you got it wrong.... The reason these are $20 a pop is because they are brand new molds and smaller production runs(more niche) even tho these are small. The ReAction line usually has pretty decent art work on the cards as well. And I would imagine Super7 pays the artist pretty well. At the end, let be real. How many you know collects ReAction compared to DC Multiverse, Marvel Legends or Transformer toys? Not much so smaller sales numbers means costs more per figure. In addition, these are not retail figures until recently at Target but the amount isn't enough to be considered a mass order.

Buying price for retailers in the EU for 3,75" figures starts at 12-14 ex vat, with the new figures. After a few months they don't appear to sell well, they get dropped to around 6 euro (ex vat). I believe super7 just wants to see how far they can go and when it does not sell quick enough, they can drop 50% of the price and still break even on them.

As you said, Super 7 has to produce these figures in relatively small volumes which also raises the per unit tooling cost. For example, if only 20,000 of a particular figure is made, that figure's tooling cost would be 10 times the tooling cost of a comparable figure that was produced in a quantity of 200,000. Similarly, the per unit cost to set up paint applications and print packaging are higher for items produced in relatively lower volumes. People who complain about the price don't understand production, transportation, storage, sales, or supply and demand. They just want things to cost less so they can buy more without earning more.

Star Wars figures were retailing for $1.99 in 1979. According to the inflation calculator, that’s $7.92 now. So, yeah... $20 is way out of line. But, 3 3/4 figures are a niche now. Less demand, licensing fees, collector only appeal... $20 probably is the best they can do and still keep the doors open and develop new product. Will the market want to buy it at that retail price though? I predict Super 7 folds in the next 3 years.

@@ThatJunkman I don’t disagree with you. They are niche. But, 3 3/4 has become niche, compared to where it was less than 10 years ago. $20, I look at that price and compare it to all the other things I can get. $5-10 more for a Marvel or Black series. If I’m looking for a gift, I can get the cheap $20-30 games for current systems. Like you said, it’s an art/novelty item. Very cool looking. But, $20, it has too much competition in that price range. Especially if the adult collector is already turned off at the price. But, I’m cheap. So, I’m certainly not the target demographic.

All I know is I will never buy one of these even if it's the coolest thing on Earth when it's $30 in Canada.

Two words: Nostalgia Tax. Way overpriced for what amounts to cheap junk. I first encountered them years ago discounted at Half Price Books and thought that even $5 was pushing it.

Will Super 7 continue with the Star Trek TNG line? The last wave with the crew in Victorian clothes was lame. I wanted Ferengis, Romulans, Klingons and Cardassians. Then I want Deep Space Nine and Voyager figures.

I should know by now but I’m always shocked at the size of the figures, too. Just got a $45 ($59 with shipping) set of the comic con “exclusive” Roger Rabbit and Judge Doom figures and while I love them to an extent- it’s a lot of money to spend on burger king toy-sized figures…They are special but not $60 special…I guess I kind of blindly hoped I’d be surprised at the actual dimensions for that price- considering the normal ReActions are “only” $20 a piece…

If they were 10 bucks each they would never be in stock. All the hoarders and collectors would buy them all and then people would be complaining that they can't find them. Whatever price people would complain either way.

Id rather choose stock shortages personally, at least id own some then .. but at this price i wont buy any. Also the 'My Pet Monster' Reaction sold out very quickly (Hence countless colour reissues) so this clearly is not the situation with some characters.

I'm another that's been turned off by the ReAction price tag. The fact that they almost look like dollar store figures is too much for me to ignore. I commend them for their variety of figures, though. Incidentally, the new definition of F.Y.E. wins the internet today...😄

Finding them at $15 is acceptable. Good points, I've always thought the main selling point is nostalgia, also as an art piece, rather than to open and display them. They chose that "vintage Star Wars figure look" with limited articulation. If the figure had elbow and knee joints, It would be 5 stars, but the packaging art, the colors and characters are 5 star.

There's 4 GI Joes and 2 Star Wars Droids figures from Super7 at Target right now, that are Target exclusives. Also, Brain the CEO of Super7 said in a youtube video that they do a process on the cardbacks where they double laminate both sides at the same time, which he says is why they're so flat. The Hasbro ones, I guess they don't do that anymore, except with con exclusives, like those multi colored ones you love so much.

It's funny that when they were making them with Funko, they were cheaper AND they looked better. The way the legs fit into the hip joints on the new ones looks strange to me, especially on characters that aren't wearing regular clothes. I really liked these figs but like everyone else is saying, it's hard to justify dropping $20 on a 3.75 inch figure with only five points of articulation and (usually) no accessories. The OG Funko ReAction figures usually came with at least one accessory and some of them even had removeable jackets.

price = whatever the market will bear (economics 101) despite complaints, someone is paying $20 (or more) for these items

Not 100%. If it cost you $10 to make it and the market will bear only $3 they not going to be $3 ;)

17.99 here. 8.99 on clearance sometimes….typically at Target. They would sell a boat load at 9.99.

Maybe. Have to see how long those stay around on clearance to know but at 8.99 the store is most likely taking a lost on money
